Reading the details of the US execution story from last night and it is absolute barbarism. Like reading a history of the medieval period.

Just drove past a garage where Diesel was £2.18/litre, that's $7.40/gallon or €1.88/litre. When the protests come, they better be in front of US military bases, 'cos there is only one person to blame for this shit.

I was around in the 1970s. I don't recall even the most rightwing Tory politicians downplaying National Front marches as some kind of justifiable expression of popular discontent.

Even leaving any politics at all aside: as general rule, no state can allow a group of masked men to be able to close down critical infrastructure. This is basic stuff.

Astonishing to hear people say they'd rather asylum seekers drowned than be saved by the RNLI. Next comes letting people die in burning hostels rather than be saved by the fire brigade and letting people get kicked to death in the street rather than be saved by the Police. Don't platform this hate.

I said I wouldn't criticise Burnham just for the sake of it but his silence needs to be called out. Starmer was endlessly criticised for not immediately responding to any given situation. I've no problem with Burnham not immediately taking to the airwaves, but he's had plenty of time to respond.

Condemning riots isn't enough. We need policy action, including an immediate appraisal of X as a vehicle for coordinating far-right disorder. And we need political leadership, to challenge white nationalism as an idea, not to validate it daily and then complain when it turns violent.
